Arm Deal:Activist Calls On
EFCC To Investigate Jonathan
Segun Lema, an activist has called on the
Economic and Financial Crimes Commission
(EFCC) and Department of State Services
(DSS) not to spare anybody suspected to
be connected with ongoing arm deal
investigation.
He especially called for the probe of the
immediate past president, Dr Goodluck
Jonathan saying that ex-president should
not be treated as sacred cow in the current
investigation to expose those behind $21.
billion arm deal.
The Activist said that Jonathan as the
consenting authority in the best position to
tell Nigerians the role he played in the arms
scam, The Nation reports.

Lema added that Nigerians expected
explanation from Jonathan on what
conspired in the arms scandal.
The EFCC had picked the chairman of DAAR
Communication, Raymond Dokpesi, former
National Security Adviser (NSA), Col. Sambo
Dasuki 9rtd), Amb Bashir Yuguda and Atahiru
Bafarawa over their involvement in the
fraud.
Also, the military authority had invited
former defence chiefs, Air Vice Marshall Alex
Badeh 9rtd, Lt-Gen Azubuike Ihejirika over
their invoivement in the scam.
Lema stressed that the invitation of
Jonathan would throw more light on the
issue and unravel the mystery around the
misapplied fund.

He called on the anti-graft agency to
investigate all those that are involved in the
scam.
Lema frowned as those Nigerians seen a
beacon of hope could out of selfishness
worked against the collective interest of the
country in their quest to enrich themselves
at the detriment of the war against
terrorism.
The legal expert called on President
Muhammadu Buhari to ensure that all stolen
funds are recovered and those that found
guilty punish according to the law.
Meanwhile, Bode George, a chieftain of the
Peoples Democratic Party and the former
Rivers state governor Peter Odili had been
named among beneficiaries of about N100
million each from the embattled former
national security adviser Sambo Dasuki
